The answers to many of these questions are highly fact dependent and the law around these issues is subject to change.

The doctors were charged with violating s. 251 of the Criminal Code, also known as the abortion provision; however, they argued that this provision of the Code infringed upon basic rights and freedoms of the “Charter”. The case was appealed to the Supreme Court of Canada.

With social justice increasingly on the Social Studies agenda, the most recent version of the Ontario Social Studies curriculum includes an increase in references to social justice and equity. Such curriculum, however, has yet to be thoroughly examined for how it addresses issues of social justice. As a result, informed by Critical Pedagogy, Critical Race Theory, and the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, I examine the 2013 Ontario Social Studies curriculum for how it addresses social justice issues, such as the Indian Residential Schools, racism, gender, and disability. Findings suggest that, despite its increasing use of vocabulary about social justice, the 2013 Ontario Social Studies curriculum remains dominated by forms of bias that whitewash history and social relations in Canada.
